Status of New Oversight Legislation: This week the
Senate Intelligence Committee formally sent the Boren/Cohen
bill to the full Senate by a favorable vote of 13-2. It is not
yet clear when the Senate will debate and vote on the measure;
however, since co-sponsors Boren and Cohen will be heavily 25X1
occupied in INF hearings for the next couple of weeks, it
appears unlikely that there will be floor action before the end
of February. Meanwhile, an interagency group including CIA
representative's met with the House Intelligence Committee staff 25X1
this week to go through the Stokes bill on oversight section-by-
section and convey the Administration's initial views on the
bill.

Statutory Inspector General: We have begun preparations
for your testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on
or about 24 February concerning Senator Specter's bill to
establish a statutory Inspector General within the Agency. We
plan to meet with representatives of the FBI to ascertain how a
similar move was staved off a few years ago, and we will also
contact the Departments of State and Detense to learn what
their experience has been with the statutory Inspector Generals
established there.
Polygraph Bill: The Senate Labor and Human Resources
Committee cancelled its January 27th markup of S. 1906, a bill
to ban the private use of polygraphs. The action was prompted
by a threat from Senator Quayle to offer an amendment striking
from the bill that section which exempts from coverage under
the bill the Agency's polygraph program (as well as others in
the Intelligence Community). Quayle's motive was purely a
tactical one: to make the bill so unpalatable to the
Administration and others as to doom any chances for further
action. He does not oppose the Agency exemption on the
merits. Future Committee action on the bill is uncertain at
this time.
